### "Great Monitoring"

February 26, 2021

5.0

Overall our experience has been great and it's helped build consumer confidence with out users.

Pros

I enjoy that their free version allows us to do simple monitoring of our various domains and quickly alerts us if an error has occurred. It also builds consumer confidence when users can quickly see our up-time.

Cons

There's nothing I don't like about the software other than it'd be nice if the up-time bade didn't have their branding on it.

### "A necessary tool for your web apps"

March 6, 2019

5.0

I'm using Freshping to monitor the health of two of my web apps. Works flawlessly.

Pros

Very easy to set up. A great UI as expected from a Freshdesk software. Their free plan is quite generous for most side-projects. Quick notifications regarding the health of your service.

Cons

Haven't found any glitch or bug in the service yet. Very reliable.

### "Easy monitoring of websites"

April 18, 2022

5.0

On the first steps of our company it has helped us to monitor our web liveness for free. Even now that we have more complex systems to monitor and alert when there are problems, Freshping helps having a 3rd party check from outside our company/IPs.

Pros

Easy to use. Free for our current needs.

Cons

It can take up to 10 minutes to receive the notification of web down in the free tier, 5 minutes to have the web test + extra time to receive the email alert.

### "My Honest Freshping Reviews"

April 21, 2022

5.0

Freshping is really good, I love it. The support, features, and monitoring interval are all very important to know what happens in my app

Pros

Uptime monitoring, real-time monitoring, and the 1 minutes interval are really good to monitor your services more often

Cons

Least configuration on the status page, I hope I can change the style of the status page to show my clients or myself with a better style. And maybe add some feature to show the ping on the status page (Currently you can see the ping inside the dashboard, not the status page.)

### "An amazing tool for monitoring web services!"

April 19, 2022

5.0

Pros

Great user experience, even business users can adopt it easily. Freshping will never let you down when it comes to continuous monitoring of your web services, greatly assists teams to keep track of service continuity and business impacts due to downtime.

Cons

Didn't really find any issues but more integrations options with DevOPS tools would be really great.

### "A pleasurable experience."

May 20, 2018

5.0

It saves me time and money by ensuring my sites are up and running properly.

Pros

I like the fact that it keeps an eye on my site(s) without any interference on my part. It helps with the security and uptime of my sites.

Cons

I would prefer more connections allowed with the free account. Only one connection is allowed with the free account.

### "Awesome monitoring that has Immediate ROIs"

October 20, 2021

5.0

Fantastic. What i love is the immediate ROI i've gotten out of my services, it has proven its worth for services that I am running across several regions and datacenters. It has been terrible that even large providers just hide their downtime and go off without informing customers.

Pros

I like that there are alot of country options to use in one single management console, the configurability is great too.

Cons

I wish there were options for 1/3/5/10/20/30 second monitoring for critical endpoints to be monitored. I also wish in US there is an ability to choose monitoring in different cities / states. Integrations were a hit and miss, zapier is available but i wish i could do telegram notification natively without the need to leverage on APIs.

### "Freshping review"

July 5, 2021

5.0

Pros

I like how I can get started without paying right away and I like how I can use Zapier to easily integrate a Webhook to a Discord channel.

Cons

The alert settings, especially in regards to the zapier/discord integration is not straightforward.

### "Good product"

August 8, 2021

5.0

We are using the free version. We use the e-mail notifications to integrate freshping and our status page system. When a problem occurs, our status page is immediately updated.

Pros

Easy to integrate with StatusPage systems. E-mail notifications help us to detect problems as soon as possible and keep our stakeholders aware of problems.

Cons

Low features on the free version. I think more resources could be available on the free version of Freshping, for example: check SSL certificate problems.

Reason for choosing Freshping

Because it is flexible and allowed us to integrate with StatusPage.

### "Freshping is exactly what I needed"

February 28, 2021

5.0

Tip-top. I wouldn't change anything.

Pros

Start to finish, I was able to set up Freshping for our enterprise in less than an hour. The service integrates easily with Slack and Twilio for notifications.

Cons

I had some trouble with the Zapier integration, so I gave up. It either works too slowly, or was broken. In either case, the built-in integrations for Slack and Twilio turned out to be all I needed anyway. Having to spend more than the basic (paid) tier for an SSL-secured status page is a bummer—definitely won't cross that threshold just for that feature.

Reason for choosing Freshping

I chose Freshping because it was mentioned in a private Slack channel for the product and community known as Roots (roots.io). One team mentioned using Freshping to monitor their sites as a workaround for some hosting shenanigans. When I woke up this morning to discover that our intranet portal was down, I decided it was time for automatic monitoring. An hour later I was up and running.

### "Easy installation good health monitor"

May 12, 2021

5.0

Good quality for money, free monitor service for up to 50 sites, links

Pros

Easy installation, haven't logged in in more than 6 months (got the reminder today). It's so good that it does the job behind the scenes. You get all the notification when the service is down so that you can act right away.

Cons

Nothing to highlight, works like a charm and it's free

### "Great product and great value"

February 1, 2021

5.0

Brilliant, we have closed a number of monitoring services down we were using formally and migrated to Freshping. It integrates well with Freshstatus, which makes our lives a lot easier dealing with incidents.

Pros

Price! It's free for up to 50 checks...forever! You can get a great feel of the software before you start using it.

Cons

I have had some difficulties connecting to the product to the Freshworks portal, support are actively working on it.

### "Great product, easy to use"

May 28, 2021

5.0

Pros

Freshping is easy to set up. The features you get on the free plan are adequate for most sites. The paid tier gets you a few more bells & whistles. It's reliable, and I like the alerts and Slack integration.

Cons

Not really a con, but the paid plans were needed as they didn't bring more value for my use case than the free plan. Some false positives are expected, but it seems that if a site changes DNS, the propagation of the domain can really cause the reports to bounce.

Pros

Easy of use and does what described. No false alarms. Also the skype Integration is working very good.

May 18, 2018

5.0

Pros

Great value for the money. Easy to monitor and has very few false positives. Overall a good tool for what we do.

Cons

Probably needs a narrower check interval, and a system to better check for false positives, we get those sometimes.

### "Solved a (BIG) Nagging Problem for a Client "

April 7, 2021

5.0

Freshping helped us prove to the ISP that their service is inadequate, which was the reason for making use of it. Going forward it will help us keep a closer eye on the issue and ensure the ISP keeps its new promises.

Pros

The initial price (free) is excellent, but it's the ease of use that really sets it apart. To solve a downtime issue - or to prove to an ISP there was a downtime issue I should say - we needed to monitor two sites for uptime at all times, and have a usable, credible record of downtime. This software provided that and more.

Cons

I've yet to find anything to be upset about it, it's a great little utility.

My general experience with all Fresh products, is that they provide as promised, and is fully functional.

Pros

Freshping is easy to started with, it takes only secodns to setup and have an intuitive setup guide.

Cons

Small bugs with missing pictures on several icons. But with that said, it isn't difficult to guess what the icon shuold be.

May 17, 2018

5.0

Really easy to check all systems from an external point of view.

Pros

Multiple protocols support and very easy-to-use web interface. Many alert integrations. Slack rocks!

Cons

Need some features for a Pro use: Check for a specific string in HTTP reply. Dependencies for checks.
